A 21-year-old Nagaland woman was sexually molested in a moving cab while she was on her way from Mahipalpur in Delhi at 8:25pm for Ambience Mall, Gurgaon on Sunday evening.

The victim, who works as a sales girl at the DLF
Promenade Mall in Vasant Kunj, said, ''There was no local transport
available and I waited for fifteen minutes then I boarded the cab.
After five minutes, the driver asked me to come to the front seat of
the car so that he could accommodate more passengers in the cab.''

The driver started conversation with her with the
aim of hoping for friendship and introduced as Manoj Yadav. He also
tried to impress the victim by introducing himself as a tour and
travel company owner as was reported by the hindustantimes.com.
